Alisson Becker

[frank the tank]

I think he’s the best keeper I’ve seen in my time supporting us - since mid 80s

Yip same here.

I always though Bruce was overrated to be honest (and am also convinced he took a bung) but never got to see Clemence play for LFC.

David James had the all of the physical attributes but a pretty ****e mentality. Pepe Reina was very good but Becker is another level

Think you have to work really hard to find an actual weakness in his game rather than things that can happen to any keeper.

For me he is as good as a peak Neuer.

Like Neuer , he has the physicality, postioning, shot stopping and that ability to become a wall to match guys like Khan, and Schmeichel at their very best.


But also like Neuer, he is elite with the ball at his feet and completely comfortable.

You could name guys like Oblak, Khan, Schmeichel, Reina, Clemence etc and for me Ali is a more complete keeper than any of them, just as Neuer was imo. He is not just good in every aspect of goalkeeping he is elite.

Only guy from yesteryear (well during my lifetime watching the game) that I think might have been on his level, other than Neuer, is prime Neville Southall.

Once he has done this (with the hair as well) I will agree 100%.

His concentration levels are also something else.

He is as good as I have ever seen.

His only weakness is not hoofing it fast enough when needed.
This is allowing the oppo player to chase him down and then force him into a hurried pass to an oppo player or a risky cruyff turn that has now become too easy for other players to anticipate.
Just fackin launch it.

Having grown up on the brilliance and **** ups of Brucie, this guy has to be our best keeper since Clemence.

His only weakness is his occasional poor pass to the opponent. Otherwise he's brilliant.

Find a keeper that does not do that though.


Hell finding one that does it only as often as Alisson does is very difficult. The guys has a pass completion rate that puts a lot of midfielders to shame and that includes long passes. He averages a pass completion rate of about 85% or 86% over the course of a season.

His passing is not a weakness at all given he is one of the most accurate passers for a goalkeeper going right back to his Roma days.

To put his passing in context, his completion rates are within touching distance of those of Matip and VVD.

Three in quick succession in that first half left me watching from behind the sofa for a while!

From the broadcast angle on TV, behind Nunez (so pretty near your seat) it definitely looked in.

[Liverpool]

I was right in line with it, looked in until the last second and I've no idea how he got down to it in time

[Shaggy]

He is incredible
